The way I read Mr. Williams's piece, he merely asked a question--"Should [Steelman] be showing that kind of raw emotion in front of the nation?"--and then turned to a retired GO and a retired CSM, both combat veterans, for answers.
IMO, he did not berate Steelman. He simply framed different POVs among warriors towards emotional displays and concluded that "some people" may not appreciate the nuances of these POVs.
FWIW, I find controversial the notion that only those who defend freedom can question the conduct of their brethren in the public eye. Mr. Steelman's display occurred during a sporting event, not during combat.
My $0.02.
